tory Showing.
The roundup of the stock which
has wintered along the Snake river
from King Hill west began last week,
and by Sunday most of the stock
found within 20 miles of the south
bank Of the Snake had been started
toward the Bruneau. Some Is or 20
cowboys on their return from round
ingup last Sunday we're interviewed
by Il TIMES man, at Glenn's Ferry.
They said that the losses would not
come anywhere near as high as they
had been stated. They had probably
seen fully $4,000 head of stock
during the past few days, and did not
believe that they had seen over so
head of dead cattle altogether. They
therefore thought that the loss so far
on that range would not exceed two
per cent. on the whole, although in
the case of particular herds which had
fallen in with wild parsnips or got
mired in sloughs, the loss was much
greater. 1t is mostly at this season of
the year that the loss is heaviest on
the range indicated, as the stock,
weakened by the severity of the win
ter and consequent scarcity of feed,
cannot stand the securing" caused
by eating young grass and the fatigue
of the long drives necessary for round
ing up and changing from the winter
to the summer range. But reckoning
the total loss, from every conceivable
cause, the cowboys were firmly of the
opinion that the total would not ex-
coed FIVE per cent. This, they SAID,
compared most favorably with Mon
tana, Dakota, North Idaho and other
northern regions where the losses ex,
ceeded so per cent. and so many
stock growers we're ruined in conse-
quence.

CATARRHAL DISEASES.
A System Of Treatment that will Infai.

libby Cure If Applied In Time.
DR.. j.. Fl. Ward, the veterinary sur
geon, says that the catarrhal disease
which carried off so many horses and
mules in this region last summer, can
be easily cured, if taken in time.
The first symptoms are chilliness or
cold, causing deep Inflammation to start
in upon the mucous membrane or lin
ing of the nostrils, and producing
pulpous bag on the bridge of the nose
from which obnoxious matter exudes,
partially paralyzing the mucous
membrane and causing a dripping
that settles upon the larynx and poi
sons the bronchial tubes. This is the
first stage of the disease.
During the second stage the drip
ping has formed deep assesses on
the lungs which soon bid defiance to
the most skillful, and death ensues in
20 to 40 days.
Following is his treatment for one
animal: Take of pulverized alum
half an ounce; finely pulverized black
pepper, half an ounce; of common
salt, half an ounce; pulverized gum

An End to Bone Scraping.

Edward Shepherd, of Harrisburg, ILL.,.
says: "Having received SO much benefit
from Electric Bitters, feel it my duty to
let suffering humanity know it. Have
had running sore on my leg for eight
years. My doctors told me would have
to have the bone scraped or leg ampu-
tated. I used, instead, three bottles of
Electric Bitters and seven boxes of Buck
lens Arnica Salve, and my leg is now

camphor, two grains. Beat the whole
we'll together in mortar. Then put
the dose in small rubber or other tube
and blow it in the animals nostrils as
far up as possible. This will break up
the disease, and in a few DAYS the an
imal will get we'll.
If the disease has reached the sec.
ond stage Showing deep assesses on
the lungs veterinary surgeon should
be consulted, if possible. If not pos
sible, the following can be used:
Take of lobelia seed, half All ounce T;
gum camphor, the same; alum the
same; calomel one grain; pulverize
the whole as fine as possible, and beat
and mix thoroughly in mortar. Then
divide in two equal parts, and admins
ter in the nostrils and through the same
tube and in the same manner as in the
hrst stage.
The treatment for the first stage is
to rupture the pulpous bag and free
the mucous membrane that nature
may be enabled to perform her func-
ton of removing distractions foreign
to the system. That for the second
stage is to burst the Assesses on the
lungs, giving freedom to the lungs,
and enabling the horse to cure him

land. he says in part: The testimonial to
Parnell amounted to G40. 900. Before this
his circumstances were much embarrass-
ed, but with Tins he paid off the mortag-
ges on his property and his finances
are now in a most comfortable con-
dition. Most of the other Irish national
leaders have been given testimonials
ranging in amounts from g1 900 to &C.,
900. Mr. Cochran, the head of the
largest firm in Dublin, says there has
been little or no money contributed for
the Irish for use of Ireland. It was the
money which came from America which
kept up all the agitation. The people
in America, he said, had little idea how
many Idle men we're living on their none
|ey. The letter states that there sre
a greater number of United States PEN
sioners in Ireland who are paid quarterly
by United States consuls. Only q small
proportion OF these were ever citizens OF
the United States, some being substi-
tutes, others being setuated by the high
bounty paid during the war. The United
States is the only government in the
world which pays pensions to persons
who do not reside in it's territory.

Mixed Up in q Murder Case--The
Criminal q Jew and His

LONDON, Aug. i3.-Faets which have
come to light tend to e~xculpate Israel
Lipski, the Jew who a few days ego was
condemned to death by Mr.. Justice
Stenkens lat the Old Bailey, for the muir.
der OF Jswess named Miriam Angelina,
Batty street, White Chapel. II has
transpired that Lipski's solicitor. saw
Justice Stephen privately and convinced
him OF Lipski's innocence. The solicitor
afterwards told a reporter OF thu Pail
Mall Gazette of the evidence in his pos-
session exonerating LipsKi, and also Of
mis- interview with Justice Stephen, but
enjoined the reporter not to publish the
statement lest he (tho solicitor) should
get into trouble for contempt OF court
and unprofessionaI conduct. /.
The Gazette diyulges everything, de-
Gliding, as it states, to blast the solicitor's
reputation in order to save an innocent
man from the gailows. A great row is
likely to follow this exposure. The evil
dence against Lipski was circumstantial,
but very strong and disclosed the fact
that the murdered woman was stunned
by blows on the head and suffocuted by
the administration of half an ounce Of
nitric acid. 1T is reported that Home
Secretary Matthews has refused to delay
the execution Of Lipski pending inquiry
OF new evidence In his case.

The Southern Portion of the State Has

BURLINGTON, Iowa, Aug. IS. The
drouth which has prevailed in this sec
ton for the last two months contin ues
unbrokan and with no indications OF an
Immediate change. There was much
lightning Friday night and thunder and
rain began falling at / O'Clock, but did
not last more than fifteen minutes, and
within half M hour after the sun rose
in the morning the face OF the earth was
as arid and dry as 1t was the day before.
Virtually the same thing occurred last
week, though a little water fell then.
There appears a strange popularity in
the present as compared to former
drouths in that 1t is not uniform, but is
more or less severe in spots of compare
lively small dimensions, though exces-
sfye dryness prevails everywhere. From
the best information attainable the south
erl portion of the state has suffered
worse than any part of Iowa. The limits
of excessive drou6fls extend north to the
line of the rock Island railroad, north-
east to near Oskaloosa, thence south to
Bloomfield. Within these limits the sit
uation Is gloomy indeed, and crops of all
kinds are virtually ruined. Corn planted
early ON prairie land has stood the dry
weather better than that planted in tim
bered sections and may yield half of an
average crop, while fields in timbered
sections will not pay the cost Of seed snd
planting. Hay was a failure and did not
turn ont more than half an average. As
a consequence many of the farmers con.
template selling their stock or have al
ready done so. a and spring wheat
turned ont well, as did winter wheat,
but of the latter little is raised in this
section. Potatoes and other root crops
are a virtual failure, and people in this
section will have to get the supplies from
elsewhere. Water is scarce, though no
actual fannie exists. Farmers in some
sections are compelled to drive their stock
long distances, wells and streams being
dried up. Unless there is a change soon
much suffering will result from this
cause. The fruit crop shared the gem
ersl fate. The soil is absolutely devoid
of moisture. A day or so since, while a
well was being dug, cracks were seen in
the ground ten TO twelve feet below the
surface. No losses from fires are re-
ported.

Sioux City Journal, 18th: When the
Illinois Central company, after 1t ac-
quired the Iowa leased lines, set out

already IN sight. 1t was understood
that the illinois Central was moi coming
in Its own right to Sioux City without

further without going a great deal
further, :. This vas quickly corroboreted
by the action OF the Illinois Central in
building the line northwestwerd from
Cherokee TO Sioux Fails, ID. T., and the
line southwest from Cherokee to OnaWa.
In ahort, the very character of the lii
nois Contra, was warrant that it would
not enter the western field save as with
all its force and as a competition
for western business, and to this the In.
dications of the situation are that il
must go on from Sioux City westward
through the magnificent field of north.
